LINNEAN2233

From:
John Latham
To:
Sir James Edward Smith
Date:
23 Jul 1791
Source of text:
GB-110/JES/COR/23/56, The Linnean Society of London
Summary:

Thanks for letter and "Linnean Transactions" vol 1. He has been working on 'Hyale' and 'Palaeno' and has distinguished the two "saffron butterflies", convinced the first is Linnaeus' 'Electra', gives character.

Notes and corrections on "Linnean Transactions", including [William] Markwick's paper [see RelatedMaterial below]. Death of Professor Lehnberg of Stockholm. Hopeful that reports of Dr [Anders] Sparrman's [(1748-1820)] death are groundless.
